Background

Many psychological factors play a role in the COVID-19 pandemic, including various forms of worry, avoidance, and coping. Adding to the complexity, some people believe the threat of COVID-19 is exaggerated. We used network analysis to investigate how these diverse elements are interrelated.

Methods

A population-representative sample of 3,075 American and Canadian adults completed an online survey, including measures of COVID-19-related worry, avoidance, self-protective behaviors, and other variables.

Results

The network contained three major hubs, replicated across gender and age groups. The most important hub centered around worries about the dangerousness of COVID-19, and formed the core of the previously identified COVID Stress Syndrome. The second most important hub, which was negatively correlated with the first hub, centered around the belief that the COVID-19 threat is exaggerated, and was associated with disregard for social distancing, poor hand hygiene, and anti-vaccination attitudes. The third most important hub, which was linked to the first hub, centered around COVID-19-related compulsive checking and reassurance-seeking, including self-protective behaviors such as panic buying and use of personal protective equipment.

Conclusion

Network analysis showed how various forms of worry, avoidance, coping, and other variables are interrelated. Implications for managing disease and distress are discussed.

COVID-19大流行期间的担忧,避免和应对:全面的网络分析

背景

COVID-19大流行中有许多心理因素,包括各种形式的担忧,回避和应对。更加复杂的是,有些人认为COVID-19的威胁被夸大了。我们使用网络分析来研究这些不同元素之间的相互关系。

方法

以人口为代表的3075名美国和加拿大成年人样本完成了一项在线调查,包括与COVID-19相关的忧虑,回避,自我保护行为和其他变量的度量。

结果

该网络包含三个主要枢纽,可在性别和年龄组之间复制。最重要的枢纽围绕着对COVID-19危险性的担忧,并构成了先前确定的COVID压力综合症的核心。第二个最重要的枢纽与第一个枢纽负相关,其中心思想是认为COVID-19威胁被夸大,并且与无视社会距离,不佳的手部卫生和反接种态度有关。与第一个枢纽相连的第三重要枢纽,围绕与COVID-19相关的强迫检查和寻求保证,包括自我保护行为,例如恐慌购买和使用个人防护设备。

结论

网络分析表明,各种形式的担忧,回避,应对和其他变量是如何相互关联的。讨论了对疾病和困扰的处理。
